Read more ↓White Kyurem is a legendary Dragon/Ice-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V. It is one of the Tao Trio, alongside Reshiram and Zekrom, and is formed when Kyurem absorbs Reshiram. This fusion gives it control over powerful flames and ice, embodying the concept of ideals. Its natural habitat is the Giant Chasm, a desolate crater said to be the resting place of a meteorite. White Kyurem is known for its immense power and its unique ability to manipulate both extreme cold and intense heat. In the games, it plays a significant role in the story of Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, where it is used by Team Plasma in their quest to conquer the Unova region. Its design, combining elements of a dragon with a frozen, almost skeletal appearance, makes it a visually striking Pokémon. White Kyurem's lore suggests it is an empty shell, waiting for a hero with strong ideals to fill its missing parts. This duality of power and incompleteness makes it a fascinating creature within the Pokémon universe. Its presence in the anime often showcases its destructive capabilities and its connection to the legendary dragons.
